Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp. (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
- 1/3 C. brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp. maple syrup
- 6 slices (1/2 inch thick) of eggy bread (brioche, challah, croissant, etc)
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 C. buttermilk (you could use regular milk, but I think the tang of buttermilk is a good contrast)
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- pinch of salt
In a small saucepan, melt butter, brown sugar, and syrup over low heat, and stir until smooth. Pour into the bottom of an 8x8 square baking pan. Arrange bread slices on top of the syrup in two layers, cutting the bread to fit as necessary. In a small bowl whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla, and salt. Pour evenly over bread, pushing down on the bread if necessary to make sure it is evenly coated. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and puffy on top.
Cool for 5 minutes, then slice into 4 squares, and flip upside down to serve.
